Well color me........
Purple!!!!!! although the photo's show blue this bali is a sexy ass purple,no blue at all.yet it will not photograph as its true color.anyone have advice on photographing ano??
Anyway, a good buddy of mine asked if i could make him an upswept wharny with sharp tip,so i figured i'd do a standard wharny for practice
Blade: ATS-34 .157" thick

has 3.5" cutting edge and 4" blade.OAL is 8.8".i'm playing with my new anodizer and having a blast!!The last 1" of the blade is ground to zero,so a few swipes on a stone and she'll cut.main bevel ground on a 6" wheel and swedge on a 2" wheel.anyway,have a look.

Beautiful work - beautiful!!
Re: Well color me........
Hey, that's pretty slick. Love the rich blueish-ness. Do you do your own anodizing? Is it actually anodized? If so, my latest Chinese fortune cookie predicts that we might meet again. Cool blade!

Re: Well color me........
Thats a real nice looking one!
Is the tang pin becomming a thing of the past for makers? I'm noticing newer designs w/out the use of the pin as the "fix" is the extra part of blade (visible when the knife is closed) on modern models.
